The gym thread

hey guys, i started gym 6 weeks ago and had the routine of
rowing machine to warm up
chest press (was 35kg now 55kg) 3 of 10, then repeat until fail
rower (was 45kg now 65kg) 3 of 10 then repeat till fail
squats with an exercise ball on my back while holding a 8kg weight (dont know the name for it) until fail
crunches 3 of 12, then until fail/screaming
bicep curls (was 6kg now 12kg) 3 of 10
one where you hold weights to the side chest height then bring them up above your head was 6kg now 8kg)
one arm dumbell extension (was 4kg now 6kg) 3 of 10
rowing machine to warmdown
a tin of tuna and a pint of whole milk after

now doing this i put on 6 pounds (was 10st2) and my body looks alot more toned, my arms are alot bigger and friends and family are noticing, but i feel like im not gaining as much as i were and my workouts are too quick.

can you guys recommend me some new stuff? (my gym doesnt have a proper bench so cant bench)

More weight, stop training to failure, do 4 sets instead of 3 with a few less reps. Thats alot for one workout to. Lots of people split it and do legs one day, chest and triceps another day, back and biceps another, some do shoulders on a different day other combine it with leg day.
